Tigist $22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Silver Spring, MD

Hello! I am TG, an international development practitioner by trade. I am a mother to an 8-year-old beautiful girl. After many years of international work, I am taking time off from my day job to go back to grad school and to enjoy the little things in life. One of the things I enjoy caring for kids. It is a great bonus that I can do that while helping pay my bills. I hope you reach out to me for a chat about your kid/s and their childcare needs. Thanks, TG

Briyana $15 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name’s Bri. I currently work at Sweathouz in Pike and Rose and am 19 years old. I’ve been with children especially younger than me all my life. I have two sisters, and 5+ younger cousins I’ve assisted caring for, and have cared for myself. I have worked as a counselor in training for a summer camp from 9 am to 6 pm, and also have worked as a aftercare teacher for St. Elizabeth’s School primarily with elementary and preschool kids. I overall have 6 years of caring for children. I’ve grown up to be a responsible adult. I have tons of experience with cleaning, whether that be light or deep, some household chores like laundry, and tutoring in most subjects. I also enjoy arts and crafts, outdoor activities, and immersive storytelling to keep kids entertained.

Marisol $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a professional with a Bachelor’s degree in Social Communication, specializing in Audiovisual Media, and I am currently pursuing an Associate degree in Child Development. I bring over six years of hands-on experience caring for children, including infants as young as 6 months up to toddlers around 3 years old. I am bilingual in Spanish and English and hold a First Aid certification for both children and adults, which allows me to respond calmly and effectively in any situation. Beyond childcare, I take pride in supporting families as a whole, I help maintain a tidy and organized home, especially during nap times, so parents can focus on their responsibilities with peace of mind. In addition to my experience with children, I have over two years of experience caring for pets, including both dogs and cats, ensuring they are safe, happy, and well cared for. I have also supported older adults by assisting with household tasks and adapting to their individual needs with patience and respect. I would describe myself as responsible, nurturing, attentive, and proactive. I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where those in my care feel comfortable and valued.

Sahara $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m new to UrbanSitter, but I bring extensive hands-on childcare experience with children from infancy through age 12 and genuinely enjoy supporting kids at every developmental stage. My most recent babysitting role involved caring for two preschool-aged children (ages 4 and 5), where I regularly handled school drop-offs and pickups, prepared meals and snacks, supervised outdoor play, and helped maintain a fun but structured daily routine for 6 months. I am currently a psychology student at University of Maryland, College Park with research experience in child development and attachment, which has given me a deeper understanding of children’s emotional, social, and developmental needs. This background helps me connect with children in a patient, attentive, and developmentally supportive way. I love creating engaging experiences for kids through play, outdoor activities, sports, reading, and creative activities, while also being a dependable and caring presence families can trust. Although I’m new to this platform, I’m excited to build meaningful relationships with families and provide reliable, high-quality care.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
